This line suggests that true progress requires pushing past the boundaries of comfort. If a situation feels completely manageable, you are likely playing it safe rather than striving for maximum effort. It encourages people to embrace a degree of risk and instability, treating the feeling of being slightly overwhelmed as a necessary sign of growth and high performance.
